Java No void eggwars - one simple change that could massively improve the game

Although management made some changes with the prices to help counter rushing, they're not enough.

I think the eggs should have blocks protecting them from the start, whether it be obsidian over them or cages of iron bars surrounding them, this would help to make it easier for players to counter those who rush their egg as they'll have to worry less about getting defences up and can get weapons and armour so when the rusher does come, they'll be able to let the rusher near the egg without fear of them destroying it as they're constantly hitting him/her and stopping their crosshair from being on one block long enough to break it, which means they'll be unable to get the egg.

I haven't been on for a while so I don't know what changes have been made, but if it were up to me I'd make obsidian cheaper, 1 gold a piece, and make gold apples more expensive, 3 gold a piece (OP mode).
Pickaxes are available so once you have a good pickaxe no amount of obsidian can stop you but it does mean the start of the game is stretched out enough to enjoy the clashing of clans.

Maybe adding a break timer to eggs. Like you have to spend 5 seconds breaking the egg for it to break so it isn’t a simple one tap. Could provide enough time for people to hit attackers off the egg to defend.
